Performance of Indians a country of 129 crore will probably be minimal if not zero. There are definitely many adibasis with in-born skills in many different sports like – archery, rowing, wrestling, even athletics, but will never make it to Olympic. Why? Because for them to reach the level where they can compete Olympic- first criteria is they must speak English. Hence language in India is a deterrent and it is done by design.
